The Orpheus Process-by Daniel H. Gower
In a university laboratory a monkey named Lazarus swims on a tank of violet amniotic fluid, his eyes wide with terror-or rage. Moments before, Lazarus had been executed with a .22 pistol. Now he is moving through the abyss between life and death. Miraculously, he will be born again.

Dr. Orville Helmond has made the greatest discovery of our time: a method of re-animating the dead. But when his own daughter is senselessly murdered, grief and desperation drive him to experiment on human beings.

Like Lazarus, Helmond’s daughter will rise again. But she is changed. Hungry, empowered, she will spawn a furious uprising of the dead. Dr. Helmond must make a new discovery: How to kill his own undying daughter once and for all.
